There is a hole thru the door hydraulic actuator rod to help hold it
from turning when the locknut for the rod end is tightened.  You might
try a pin punch thru this hole to help keep the spring compressed enough
to start the rod end.<<

Scott:
   My problem was trying to compress the spring before using a punch
through the hole to hold it. While trying to use a spring compression
tool I built (it didn't work) it dawned on me that if I put the spring
in place and put a punch through the hole, I could turn the spring and
screw it into compression until the loose end cleared the end of the
shaft. The rest of the assembly was easy.  Duh!!
